You can configure a new Report Distribution policy via the Policy to Configure page of the Active Roles Console.
To configure a Report Distribution policy
-
On the Policy to Configure page, select Report Distribution Policy, then click Next.
-
On the Report Recipients and Message page, do the following, then click Next:
-
Click the button next to Report recipients, then select one or more email recipients.
-
In Message Subject, type the subject of the message that the specified recipients will receive upon completion of a deprovisioning operation.
Macros have the same syntax and semantics as values for policy conditions in Property Generation and Validation policies: An attribute’s LDAP display name enclosed in angle brackets (<>) and prefixed with the percent character (%) represents the value of that attribute. For instance, before sending a message, Active Roles replaces %<name> with the original name of the object that has been deprovisioned.
NOTE: Active Roles retrieves the attribute value prior to starting the deprovisioning operation so the value is current as of the time the deprovisioning process begins. Even if you have a deprovisioning policy configured to update a given attribute, the message reads the original rather than updated value of that attribute.
-
Select the Send out the report only if any errors occur check box if you want the policy not to send the report if no errors occurred during the deprovisioning operation. Clear the check box if you want the policy to send the report regardless of whether or not any errors occurred.
